I work in desktop support for a large IT Outsourcing Corporation.

I responded to a call from a user today that in one particular Word document
(using Office 2003 Pro.), when he sent specific pages from that document to
the printer, no output was produced.

On further investigation, it turned out that the user was instructing Word
to print pages 12 & 13 of a document that only contained 9 pages - daft I
know BUT in all fairness, the application did not give the user any
indication that this was the problem.

Surely, if Word is able to calculate the number of pages making up a
document, it ought to be able to inform a user that they have requested
printed output of material outside that range (i.e. non-existent pages!)?
